The Art Of Sacred Intimacy | 074

Listen to this episode from It Has to Be Me on Spotify. Want to feel more connected in your relationship and have mind-blowing sex that keeps getting better? Justin Patrick Pierce and Londin Angel Winters—life partners, authors, and intimacy teachers—give us a masterclass.  After enduring the usual relationship disappointments in her 20’s and 30’s, Londin wasn’t settling, and got into sacred sexuality. At 24, Justin was on a very different path, albeit a spiritual one. In becoming a couple, they embraced the study and practice together. Then, over a decade, developed their signature system—Yoga Of Intimacy—which they share through private consultations and workshops.  In our conversation, we hear male and female perspectives on what gets in the way of experiencing the love and sex we want. Starting with the traits of an unconscious lover—unaware, reactive, distracted, selfish—we learn how to be more conscious lovers, and seek partners who want to cultivate similar values. Building a relationship this way, you keep attraction and passion alive and growing.  Londin and Justin demonstrate some of the foundational practices they use with their clients to balance expectations, and soften fear and resentment. Then share how to open more trust and intimacy, reignite the fire when the spark dies out, and create the hottest moments of ecstasy.  We get practical tools for communicating what we want without shutting our partner down, celebrating desires that are different, and finding the bridge to meet with excitement.  This episode is about surrendering and showing up fully, moment by moment, and listening to our hearts in the interactions that most of us find the hardest.  Justin and Londin invite us to love like we’re never been hurt, and see how we deny others the things we don’t know how to give ourselves. TESS’S TAKEAWAYS: We attract partners who deny us love as much as we deny them. Surrendering enables deeper love that’s free from attachment to external outcomes. Avoid expectation and resentment. Meet your lover each time as if for the first time. The “I See / I Feel” practice helps partners share and grow without reactivity.  Consciously cultivate polarity to enhance attraction, desire, and passion.  Balancing desire and equanimity helps us want and allow at the same time.  The Yoga Of Intimacy provides a blueprint to be a masterful lover.   Mastery is not a destination, but a commitment to a path that has no end.  ABOUT JUSTIN AND LONDIN Co-authors of Playing With Fire and The Awakened Woman's Guide to Everlasting Love, Justin Patrick Pierce and Londin Angel Winters are business and life partners, and relationship coaches who teach sacred sexuality with their signature training, Yoga Of Intimacy.  Having studied and practiced sacred intimacy for more than a decade under the tutelage of renowned teachers, Justin and Londin’s system prioritizes practicality over theory.
